My Cousin Rachel - Victorian who done-it

Philip Ashley is an orphan and adopted by his cousin Ambrose.

Ambrose goes to Italy due to ill health where he meets, falls in love and marries Rachel, he frequently writes to Philip suspecting that she is poisoning him. Philip urgently travels to Italy but by the time he arrives Ambrose has died and Rachel has disappeared. Philip wants revenge and returns to the estate in England that he will inherit on his 25th birthday.

Would you believe it! Philip falls deeply in love with Rachel, so much so that he hands over his entire inheritance on his birthday (yes really!) It is then that Philip starts to get sick after Rachel makes him a special tea (do you think it contains the same poison?!)

The question we ask at the beginning of the film is "Did she? Didn't she? During the film we ask "is she up to the same shenanigans?" At the end a lot is left unresolved and I felt a little unsatisfied.

So ... do you think she did it?!
